Should I accept this ITA if I receive it before my full experience?

I currently have 445 points and got ITA today.

I received my ITA in my 23 months 2 weeks (CIC system thinks i am 2 years already) of work experience. I would like to claim 2 years for the 445 points .

Should I reject this ITA? Or I can use this ITA but only submit all the PR application after my 24 months (2 years) ? Since we have 60 days to submit.

Preferably wait till you reach 2 full years, 24 months, and only then ask for work reference letter so that the date on the letter reflects that.

Hi @a16107 May I ask how did you proceed? Is it ok to wait until exact 2-year work experience to submit the documents? Or we have to decline the ITA and wait until the 2-year anniversary?

You can accept but submit your application after the 2 year anniversary. Make sure your reference letter is dated after you achieved 2 years worth of experience. Then add letter of explanation.

You may further refer to this tweet from IRCC. Similar to your case.

Thanks. That makes it a lot easier. Is the date of the reference letter mandatory in this case? The HR issued one to me several days ago and made a specification on the starting and ending date (in another 2 years in the future) of my position. Also I will attach all the paystub until 2-year working anniversary. Not sure if that works.

Just my opinion, I think its better to date the reference letter after the 2 year work anniversary.
